Trivia
Executive produced by Steven Spielberg as a favor to writer Lawrence Kasdan, who had previously written Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) for Spielberg. This same year, Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) and Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) producer George Lucas served as executive producer for Body Heat (1981), which Kasdan directed.
Quotes
Ernie Souchak:
It's so quiet up here, you could hear a mouse get a hard on.
Goofs
When Souchak runs outside of the hotel to get a cab to Union Station, you can clearly see the lighting electrical cables running along the curb.
Crazy Credits
At the end of the credits, after some mountain shots, there's a sequence of a selection of some of the black-and-white photos of Ernie and/or Nell that Souchak had on his desk.
